yeah ... i know all this shit  

just need to suck it up and do my best.

im like a fucking broad for two weeks. i just bitch

feeding what habit? i think its good to vent like this. plus ive gotten some good advice. i have had amazing conversations with people through pm's.

i dont even look in the gambling threads, no interest.

time to grab a book and hit the sack ...

one more thing for tonight. this was bugging me. this is the reason that i fell off the wagon. i love excitement. i love action. i love risk. i love it. i fucking love it.

this is what ive noticed. in the past 10 years from 20-30.

when i am sober i am a man. my risks are calculated. i will win. thats a fact. sober.

not sober .... im another loser in the dust.

this was bugging me because youre answer/argument is a very good one.

I love risk too, I hear that. And it's not a bad thing when you're in control of it.

I'm 27 and staying in on a Friday as well despite the fact I'd rather take a bottle of goose and go hit the city to holler at women and let loose. I relate to you on a lot of the stuff but I still like a bender here and there, I'm going sober another 13 days til Vegas for a weekend, it's been a month already and I feel great.

The reason I popped in is because I just want to share what I think about when I stay in on a weekend. Remember that nobody will wake up the next day feeling more clear and healthy than you. I love sober mornings with nothing but purity in the bloodstream.

And Detox, you gotta give exercise a go man, so many endorphins will get released the natural way inside your body..it feels too good. Ride a bike, shoot some hoops, swim, go for a run, hike, lift some weights, something. Use your heart and combine that with meetings and you'll get on a roll. BOL

Take care of yourself dude.

good luck  

yeah man ... thats the tough part. BUT i need to be sober and deal with the boredom thing in a little bit. it becomes a problem. im so fucked up right now i just want to start feeling better.

thanks spit t

yes .... exercise will be great. not sure if you guys know what its like to withdraw, but im going to have the "flu" for two weeks.

so ... still a ways a way but def need to exercise and release those endorphines .... thanks for stopping by

steel cash n capt john

i need it.
